Two Taoist priests, one fat and one thin, didn't know how formidable Erniu was.
Counting on their position at the mountain gate and with Maoshan right behind them, they thought they could abuse their power, manipulating Erniu and the delicate Hu Shisanniang backing him.
So, as soon as the fat Taoist's words had fallen, the thin Taoist, unable to contain his eagerness, charged forward. Grasping his lightning-wood-made Peach Wood Sword, he thrust it directly at Hu Shisanniang, standing behind Erniu, while brazenly shouting out to the fat Taoist.
"Junior brother, let me test this demoness's cultivation first. You deal with this man. After we capture them, you take the man back up the mountain to report!"
"Senior brother, it's better if I handle this female demon, and you take care of this man."
The fat Taoist, seeing the thin Taoist breaking the rules of martial ethics by taking premature action, also hurriedly attacked Hu Shisanniang.
